Football cake!! This is all chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream icing inbetween the 4 layers and covered on the outside. I really tried to do some texture tricks, but it just doesn't work too well with buttercream. So I can see why fondant would've been a good choice for this one. Live and learn! (But it'll taste better, right?)

Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
h
Nothing goes better together than raspberry and dark chocolate. I've always wanted to make a cheesecake from scratch with a springform pan. For my husband's and I 11th year anniversary, we were just staying in and I thought I should make a special dessert. So this was it. It's a New York style cheesecake with raspberry and semi sweet chocolate spooned on top, when baked sporaticaly sunk into the top. After the cheesecake cooled I made a chocolate ganache to spread over the top. Then served with a dollop of whipped cream. This is a very rich dessert, but very decadent also. It was the perfect anniversary surprise.

What do you do with leftover pumpkins from Halloween??
Make Pumpkin Pie of course!!!
'Tis the season for pumpkin pie! I had my halloween pumpkins just sitting on the porch, so I decided to make homemade-all-the-way pumpkin pie. I pitted and cleaned out my pumpkin and roasted it in the oven, scooped out all the pumpkin flesh and pureed it up and then made my pie. After making the pie crust of course. I topped it with whipped cream (no! not cool whip!) seasoned with a dash of pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, & brown sugar. YUM!
